RDJ was actually a risky choice at the time. Chris Evans wasn't the biggest name during his casting either.

Re: Transcript by OP

RDJ was a risk yes but he was an Oscar nominee and was famous as an actor more than fifteen years earlier. Chris Evan’s wasn’t the biggest name but he was a big name and had starred in blockbusters. Scarlett Johansson was a huge name. Mark Ruffalo was a huge name when he took over as Hulk and it was actually a big kerfuffle because he seemed wrong for the part. Jeremy Renner wasn’t but also he didn’t have any movies before Avengers and no stand alone.

Jeremy Renner wasn’t but also he didn’t have any movies before Avengers and no stand alone.

Maybe I didn't parse this part correctly, but are you talking about the Academy Award nominated actor for 2009's The Hurt Locker (the first Academy Award Best Picture winner to be directed by a woman, Kathryn Bigelow, the first woman to win Best Director)? Because I remember that being kind of a big deal. (He was also nominated for Best Supporting Actor, for The Town the year after that). So, I would say he was actually known before his first appearance in Thor (2011).

The new post is up so you probably won’t see this but despite The Hurt Locker, no one knew who he was. It used to frustrate me because I was a huge fan of his because he was in some of the most amazing indie films. I was so happy for him when he joined the MCU! But whether I was chatting with coworkers or posting on LJ in fandom spaces, not once did anyone know who he was except one House fan who recognized him from his one episode of that show. His salary when he joined the MCU was pitiful considering the Oscar noms.
